Man City's Jack Grealish 'being closely monitored' by two major European clubs

Two major European clubs are reportedly keeping a close eye on Jack Grealish's situation at Manchester City, with the attacker struggling to gain regular playing time.

Inter Milan and Borussia Dortmund are reportedly interested in signing Manchester City attacker Jack Grealish.

The 29-year-old has struggled for regular playing time this season, having had to settle for 11 starts in 21 competitive appearances.

Grealish's only start in 2025 took place in Man City's 8-0 demolition against League Two Salford City, with the England international netting a goal and providing two assists to help his side ease through to the FA Cup fourth round.

The former Aston Villa man has dropped down to the bench for the last two matches, being left as an unused substitute for an away game against Brentford, before he played around half-an-hour in Sunday's 6-0 win over Ipswich Town.

Having fallen to the fringes of Pep Guardiola's squad, Grealish has been linked with a potential move away before the end of the current transfer window.

Two European heavyweights targeting Grealish

Last month, it was reported that Tottenham Hotspur and Newcastle United were both showing an interest in signing the out-of-favour attacker.

According to The Sun, Grealish's Premier League suitors could face competition from two of Europe's biggest clubs.

The report claims that Serie A giants Inter Milan and Bundesliga side Borussia Dortmund are 'closely monitoring' Grealish's situation at the Etihad Stadium.

There is a suggestion that Grealish could be open to the prospect of a winter departure in a bid to gain regular game time elsewhere.

How likely is a January departure?

Earlier this month, Guardiola insisted that Savinho had worked hard to establish himself in the starting lineup over Grealish.

Guardiola claimed that Savinho was in "better shape" than Grealish, providing some reason as to why the Englishman has fallen out of favour at the Etihad Stadium.

As a result, Man City may consider sanctioning Grealish's departure if an enticing proposal comes along before next month's deadline.

However, the Citizens appear to be keen to add to Guardiola's depth following a difficult first half of the season, meaning that they may only offload Grealish if they can find a replacement.

Grealish is expected to feature in the matchday squad for Wednesday's Champions League clash with Paris Saint-Germain, although he is likely to be on the bench for the trip to France.
